A CITY CoURTSHIP.

The proper place for courting,
BY the story books reporting.
u some lane or meadow pathway, out Of sight Of
town,
With the sweetness blowing over
From the fields of beans and clover.
And the skylark dropping westward as the sun
go-s down.
But I've met my little Sally
At the mouth Of Dawson allry.
As We walked along together towards the dome
of 81. Paul's,
Mid the jpsiIing crowd that passes
Meath the glarns lamps and gases
And the shouting Of the drivers and the news
boys calls.
And the lily OF the valley
That gave my little Sally,
Was the faded penny bouquet that flower girl
sells;
She has never seen one growing.
And it easy to be showing
For its birthplace is in Dreamand that's beyond
Bow Bells
oh Il pains me- in our walking
All the oaths and shameful talking,
And the folks that brush her passing, and the
glanc-s bold;
But though evil things may touch her,
They never hurt or smutch her.
For she turns the dirt 10 sweetness, as a flower
the mold.
Nay it's not In country places.
Mid the fields and simple faces,
Out OF sight aud sound If evil. that pure heart
grows:
But II here in London city.
In the SIN. and shame. and pity
For the pure heart draws its pUreness from the
wrong 1t knows
When my Says sweetness found me,
Twas like the men around me,
/ was cusrsn and low. and selfish, the beast
that dies;
But her grace began to win me.
And nv heart was changed within me.
And l lt-irned to pray from gazing in my darlings
eyes.
